Tyler Walker is an app developer, composer, and sound designer in the Hudson Valley. In 2016, after 15 years working professionally writing music, he wrote the sound and music for a mobile video game. The developer let him peek behind the curtain to see how it all worked, and he was instantly smitten with the process. This triggered an unexpected career shift focused heavily on app development. He has worked on three apps currently in the app store, and is close to releasing his first solo video game. He is still making music.
